Setting Up Signatures

A signature can be applied to a PDF form or document in a number of ways. The most typical method is using the SYSTOC Signing Tool to apply either a real-time or previously-saved signature to a signature field. Another method is using the Stamp Tool to apply a saved signature outside of a signature field.

Most users find it convenient to use a signature pad device to apply a signature in real-time or create and save a signature for later use. With this approach, there is no need to have a device installed on every computer; devices can be reserved for computers that are used for patient signing.
